These cookies sound disgusting, but they are my new favorite chocolate chip cookie! This is coming from someone who has never made a hard boiled egg, much less eaten a hard boiled egg (blah)! I was amazed at how great these cookies turned out.

I saw this recipe over on Cookie Madness years ago, but it was Katrina's post over on Baking and Boys after Easter that finally convinced me that I needed to make them. I am sad it took me so long to try them. The cookies are perfect - crunchy on the outside; soft and chewy on the inside. Don't tell people that these have hard boiled eggs in them before they try them. If they are like some of my picky friends, they won't try them. I guess it would be their loss because these are the best! I am buying some oatmeal this week so I can try the hard boiled egg oatmeal cookies next!

Yay. I hadn't seen your post on these yet since I had no internet for 5 days! Ugh.Glad you liked (loved) them so much. They might be my favorite ccc, too. But then there's Levain and NYT and I'm just not sure. Definitely perfect for leftover Easter eggs. The oatmeal version is for sure my favorite oatmeal cookies.
